After receiving the news of Peg's death, we received a wonderful gift from a dear friend of hers, Kiki Webb:
Hello Dear Friends of Peg,

I am so grateful to hear your voices.  It's such a comfort at this time of transition for Peg and all of us who love her. This morning, as I was listening to "Hallelujah," I remembered a CD of the songs from Boxer. As some of you may know, Peg's musical, The Boxer of Basin Street, was presented at the Acrosstown Repertory Theater many years ago. Peg and I made a demo tape of the songs at that time.

Kathleen Olive is playing piano.  Peg sings and plays guitar on "Rena's Blues." Malcolm Gets is singing "Vieux Carré Winter" and "Nightchild."  Malcolm, Peg, Pauline and I are singing what I believe Peg called "Gates of Heaven."  

These are links to the songs ...

My name is William Kennedy (center in photo) and I am the Executive Director at the Center for Independent Living<http://www.cilncf.org/>. Attached is the last picture taken with Peg late last year. I have been fortunate to know and love Peg for more than 20 years now. She was my friend and mentor and worked with me assisting others with disabilities wanting to increase their own levels of independence and quality of life.

In telling my staff of her passing I said "We have lost our dear friend Peg Libertus.  Peg was a CIL Board member and volunteer for a number of years.  Most recently she had done our newsletters. Peg lived a life exemplary of those things represented in the disability rights movement and Independent Living Philosophy. She fought for her rights as a person with a disability long before any law said she had any.”
